Hello, Mr Li
/ Hello, Mr Li Chapter 128 - How wrong have I been
What welcomed Dexi immediately he got to his parents mansion was a slap from his father Mo Dachuan. Even his mother was shocked so she hurriedly stood in between them to stop her husband from hitting him again.
"How could you hit my son like that?" She yelled at Dachuan.
"Yes.." He pointed an accusing finger at her. "It was you who raised him this way"
Zhao Biyu had no doubt always spoiled Dexi since he was born. Even with his promiscuous nature which everyone knew about, she didn't care but had only advised him to settle down and produce a grandson soon. He was her only son at her 65 years of age after all.
"Yes, I raised him that way. So you should hit me instead" She beat her hand on her chest "Hit me!" She ordered.
"Mother, it's okay." Dexi said gently as he looked at his father. "Why did you hit me?"
"You punk! How dare you question me?" He hit his walking stick on the ground in anger. "What were you thinking using that wench to go after your nephew? Now the whole world is mocking this family"
"I didn't do anything wrong. Neither did Sara...."
"You're still taking her side? How dare you call that girl's name in this house?" Dachuan interrupted.
"Sara came here to meet Aunty Changyu. You can check the CCTV to see that they had both left together. None of us has anything to do with Jinyong's predicament. I'll be leaving now" He bowed and walked out leaving his enraged father and pleading mother.
He wasn't one to explain himself, he bad never been one to do so. When he looked through the CCTV footage to check how Sara left that night, he had seen a clip of Sara and Muchen kissing. Everything had been pissing him off for the past few days, then his stupid nephew had to do that. In frustration, he ordered his secretaries and driver to get out of the car. Then, he drove off, leaving them behind.
Sara went back downstairs after freshening up and calling home. She wondered whether her father refused to talk to her because he was angry at her for leaving the house. She was only able to speak with Joreen who was very happy that she was going to spend the night in the 'Almighty' CEO Li's apartment.
She carefully walked into the kitchen and was surprised to actually see Muchen wearing an apron.
When he noticed she was behind him, he turned to give her the most adorable smile ever and turned back his head without saying anything. His most desired wish finally came through.
'Does he think I look funny?' She looked at what she was wearing again. It was a tee-shirt of his which was big enough to cover most of her thigh, a house slipper covered in fur, and her hair, tied in a ponytail. She had been surprised to see the hairband he had yanked from her hair the other day, lying neatly on the bed with the shirt.
"You're just in time" He said as he positioned two plates of fried rice on the kitchen table. "Come over here" He gestured with his hand for her to come over then he went on to take off his apron. Sara took gentle steps to the seat he had opened for her and sat there. He then sat down opposite her.
"It smells nice" She complimented.
"I'm not sure it'll be up to par with your dad's. But you have to manage" He said.
Sara remembered the first time she saw him in his office, she had thought him to be a showoff, she had even seen his as cold, unapproachable and annoying. 'How wrong have I been'
She ate a spoon and nodded satisfyingly "Not bad"
What? Not bad? That's it? Muchen put down his spoon and looked at her. "I didn't want to say this, but you should really be impressed with my cooking especially when you don't know how to cook"
Sara choked on her food when she heard him. She had no idea when Muchen left his sit to help her pat her back gently. After settling the glass of water back on the table, she shrugged off his hand from her back. "Who said I didn't know how to cook?"
He smiled and went back to sit. "I just know you don't"
Sara ignored him and tightened her hand around her spoon. "Joreen.. I am going to kill you" She muttered through gritted teeth"
Muchen heard her but pretended like he didn't. He tried not to laugh as he focused on his food. He wondered what more her father had that she lacked. Cooking? No! EQ? Even worse. No!
"Why didn't you go with your phone?" Sara changed the topic and asked.
"Sometimes, I usually don't"
"But why? You are a CEO. Anything can happen right?"
"Right. I actually have two phones. For personal use,and business use. Most times, I don't go with my personal phone. If there's something really urgent at home, it would be communicated through Ms Long and if there isn't, then it's all good."
"That still doesn't seem right if you ask me. During your trips? Ms Long is always with you 24 hours?" She asked.
"Most of the time" He answered.
"Oh..." She said nothing else and just continued eating.
"Don't think nonsense. Nothing is going on between us" He said with a tiny smile.
"I never said otherwise" She corrected.
"Well, the other day....." He paused for a but then decided to just let it slide "Well, never mind" He said.
Sara wondered what he wanted to say then remembered when she saw Muchen blowing Ms Long's eye. She tried not to laugh and quietly focused on her food.
Muchen on the other hand, was feeling really dizzy but he tried his best to remain alert. Sara had to be okay first.
